According to the vet charity PDSA, 27% of adults in the UK own a dog. So by my reckoning, that means that roughly one in ten weddings in the UK involve one dog owner marrying another dog owner. This raises the question of what marrying couples actually do with their pets during the wedding day itself. While many doubtless call in their local dog-sitter, one couple whose wedding I photographed recently had a rather different idea. When K and J got married at MacDonald Bath Spa Hotel last year, they decided not just to bring their dogs, but to invite their guests to do so too!

The idea worked brilliantly, as all the dogs were extremely well-behaved, and were happy to pose for pictures with their humans....

I particularly loved the rather fetching apparel the dogs were sporting!

Squatting down enabled me to get a dog's eye view of the wedding in progress and I loved it :-)

All in all, the wedding was an absolutely wonderful celebration of the couple's love for each other - and their four-legged friends.

A Photographer Who Sees the Real You

Model portfolio photography isn’t just about posing, it’s about expressing who you are. I’m drawn to those subtle, genuine moments: the way someone moves, laughs, pauses, or reacts. These are often the frames that stand out most in a portfolio because they show a true sense of character.

My goal is to help you feel relaxed and confident, so your expressions and poses look effortless, strong, and real. This approach creates images that agencies and casting directors love: clean, expressive, and honest.

I would recommend her as we loved having her as part of our big day, as did my whole wedding party, she went above and beyond to get the photos we wanted. She is always responsive to emails, sends images on time and we absolutely love the engagement and wedding photos we received" (Caley & Kristian)

Engagement Photography in Bath-the best locations

Engagement Photography That Feels Like You!

There’s something truly magical about Bath. Maybe it’s the golden glow of the stone buildings at sunset, the peaceful corners of hidden gardens, or the way the city somehow makes everything feel timeless. As a Bath-based photographer, I’ve had the absolute joy of capturing some of the most beautiful moments between couples here—surprise proposals, quiet walks, and those soft, joyful smiles that say everything without words.

Engagement photography isn’t about posing perfectly or forcing big gestures. It’s about capturing the real connection between two people, in a place that means something to them. Bath, with its elegant charm and natural beauty, offers the perfect backdrop for that.

Your Love, Your Moment

Some of the most memorable sessions I’ve done have started with a surprise proposal. Whether it’s carefully planned or slightly spontaneous, I help make sure everything flows naturally—often hiding nearby (yes, sometimes behind a tree!) to stay invisible until the big moment. With local knowledge of the city and experience photographing many couples, I can guide you to the right locations at the right time of day—where the light is soft, the setting is quiet, and the moment is just yours.

Favourite spots? There are so many. The view from Alexandra Park as the sun dips below the hills, the romantic stillness along the Kennet and Avon Canal, the warm stone.

Many couples tell me they were nervous at first, but within minutes it felt like we were just taking a walk together—chatting, laughing, enjoying the scenery, and letting the photos happen naturally.
